    Department of Biological Sciences, University of Warwick, Gibbet Hill Road, Coventry CV4 7AL, UK
    Math Biosci 213:29-39. 2008
    ..Finally we consider the use of prophylactic vaccination, responsive vaccination, or antivirals to combat epidemic spread and focus on whether it is optimal to target controls at entire households or to treat individuals independently...

    J R Soc Interface 8:909-12. 2011
    ..A parsimonious model is proposed that incorporates several observed features of behavioural contagion not seen in existing epidemic model schemes, leading to metastable behavioural dynamics...

    Thomas House
    Warwick Mathematics Institute and Department of Biological Sciences, University of Warwick, Coventry, UK
    BMC Infect Dis 10:25. 2010
    ..consider two key questions currently unanswered in the literature: firstly, what is the optimal spatial scale for intervention; and secondly, how sensitive are results to the modelling assumptions made about the pattern of human contacts?..
  8. ncbi A motif-based approach to network epidemics
    Thomas House
    Warwick Mathematics Institute and Dept Biological Sciences, University of Warwick, Coventry, UK
    Bull Math Biol 71:1693-706. 2009
    ..We present a more general approach, based on the prevalence of different four-motifs, in the context of ODE approximations to network dynamics. This is shown to outperform existing models for a range of small world networks...

    T House
    Department of Biological Sciences, University of Warwick, Coventry, UK
    Epidemiol Infect 137:654-61. 2009
    ..Since these benefits of childhood vaccination are a product of correlations between household size and number of dependent children in the household, our results are qualitatively robust for a variety of disease scenarios...

    Leon Danon
    Department of Biological Sciences and Mathematics Institute, University of Warwick, Gibbet Hill Road, Coventry CV4 7AL, UK
